JOHN COLTRANE Ballads (1995 US 8-track LP pressed on 180gram Vinyl; recorded between December '61 and November '62, this album was Coltrane's response to critics who had labelled his performances 'anti-jazz' - fired up, he entered the recording studio to create this mix of well-known and obscure ballads. Aided & abetted by the classic Coltrane Quartet line-up of McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison & Elvin Jones, he produced this emotive and heartfelt collection, presented in sealed & stickered picture sleeve)
